[quote:Anonymous Coward 76317946:MV8zNzkzMDI0Xzc1QjE2MTYz] "It’s really really bad. There’s no way to spin it," he said during a discussion on Fox News Channel's "The Five." "Well, I know one thing. Mexico's not going to pay for the wall, and neither will we. Because it says there's only going to be $1.6 billion for the wall, and you can't even use the new concrete prototypes that [Trump] surveyed. And it's only supposed to be for 93 miles," Watters said. "The border is 3,000 miles, and the only fencing that is going to be done is backup fencing and repairs." He noted that Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) got funding that will be used for the Gateway rail project out of the deal, a project Trump had opposed as part of the deal. Watters questioned how Trump would keep his promise to "never sign another bill like this again," asking how the president would change the dynamics in Congress to ensure future spending bills contained funding for his legislative priorities.
